Be it for the good, bad, ugly, or downright shocking, 2023 was full of monumentally memorable moments!

Now, as the year draws to a close, That Grape Juice is reflecting on the occasions that rocked – and to some degree maybe even reshaped – the Urban and Pop cultural landscape as we know it.

Next, we revisit the snub that rubbed everyone the wrong way: Beyonce being passed over for the GRAMMYs Album of the Year honor…again.

Join us below…

Heading into 2023, Queen Bey was riding the wave of success with her blockbuster album ‘Renaissance.’

More than a LP, the monumental set was widely hailed as a cultural milestone and a definitive career high for the megastar.

Naturally, then, the singer was considered a shoo-in for the GRAMMYs Album of the Year honor that has eluded her for the length and breadth of her journey.

She had previously nominated for ‘I Am…Sasha Fierce’ and 2013’s ‘Beyonce.’

However, on the night, she was once again bested. This time by Harry Styles’ ‘Harry’s House.’

Suffice it to say, the BeyHive did not hold back and light was once again shone on the worryingly small number of Black woman (and Black artists more broadly) to have ever won the award.

Still, the GRAMMYs 2023 were a memorable for Beyonce more positive reasons. For, she broke the tie to become the most awarded artist in GRAMMY history.
